Series Preview: Milwaukee Brewers vs. Cincinnati Reds
Brewers face Reds for second time in two weeks, this time at home
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang (2) turns a double play in the ninth inning between the Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati on Wednesday, June 24, 2026. | Albert Cesare/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images The Milwaukee Brewers will face yet another NL Central rival this week, as they’re welcoming the Cincinnati Reds to town for four games. Given that Milwaukee played the Reds less than a week ago, I won’t do my full recap of both teams.
After the Brewers swept the Reds at Great American Ballpark, Milwaukee returned home to host the Cubs. They took the opening game of the series behind another strong showing from Jacob Misiorowski before dropping the final two of the series, though they still hold a 5.5-game lead on the division with July on tap.
On the other side, the Reds bounced back nicely in Pittsburgh this weekend, taking two of three from the Pirates as the offense finally showed up (19 runs over three games).In injury news, the Brewers’ only real update is the return of Jared Koenig, who was activated from the injured list on Friday. His return is big for a Brewer bullpen that went from a surplus to a deficit of left-handers in rapid fashion — Milwaukee’s current IL consists of four bullpen lefties, which left Aaron Ashby as the lone healthy lefty before Koenig’s return.
The Reds didn’t get anyone back, but they did lose outfielder Blake Dunn and right-hander Tony Santillan. Santillan was put on the injured list with an oblique strain, meaning he’ll be out until at least after the All-Star break, while Dunn is currently listed with a TBD return after being shelved with a right elbow sprain.As a reminder on these two teams’ offenses, the Brewers rank in the top 10 in most offensive categories despite ranking near the bottom in homers, with just 73 as a team (tied for 26th entering Sunday).
The Reds, on the other hand, have 100 homers (ranks 12th), but they rank in the bottom-third of the leag
